This is an escort mission, through out this whole mission all you have to do is protect the tank. You do not need to stay near the tank you can run ahead, but I wouldn’t recommend running to far ahead. All you do is follow the tank and kill any hostiles shooting at it….. simple.

But there will be a lot of ambushes so be prepared. If you don’t have one, get a repair tool as soon as possible.The first ambush is right in front of you when you start the mission, there will be hostiles on both sides with rocket launchers stationed up high (you can still jet pack on to them). Once you have passed the first supply depot you will encounter an enemy drop ship that has just dropped in some troops, as its flying away it will shoot at you so watch out. Also a enemy mech will come running in when the tank gets close enough so be prepared.

Quickly take care of all the guys before the tank gets close, also try not to leave any troops behind, don’t want any loose ends dragging you down right? When you have taken down the mech some troops will drop in right in front of you, and you will be informed that a enemy tank has been spotted near by. After the tank proceed down the road, and you will see a supply depot, use it for ammo, health, new guns, repair tool, what ever you need to protect the tank.

After the supply depot you will enter a cave, around the first corner of the cave is an ambush. Outside the cave is a little friendly outpost, run over to the building next to the supply depot, and enter through the back door. After the chat with the guy inside, go back out side and hold the area. All the enemies will be coming from the side were the turrets are.  Eventually about 3 mechs will come into the fight, when the mechs are destroyed you will be told to go to Blackburn. Follow the way points to Blackburn, ignore any enemies you see. Blackburn will tell you to repair two turrets, when repairing the turrets enemies just keep spawning and spawning, so ignore them, only kill the ones who want to kill you. Go to each way point and repair both turrets. Both turrets are in bunkers so you will have cover when repairing.

When you have repaired both turrets you will be told to go reactivate generator one. Follow the way point to the generator, and kill the engineers in the area. When the engineers are dealt with you are clear to reactivate. After you have reactivated generator 1 start moving toward generator two. You will have to cut through a industrial complex, when entering the complex there will be a sniper straight ahead on a cat walk. When you have dealt with the sniper start moving toward the objective, there will be about two other enemy soldiers in the complex.

At generator two you will be attacked on arrival, defend the generator, and take out all enemies, including one mech. After defending generator two, start moving to generator three via a maintenance short cut. Have your jet pack ready when using the short cut! You never know when the cat walks are gonna give into the heat of the lava!, and if you touch it you die instantly. Once you have made it through the short-cut you will arrive right behind the generator controls, be careful when exiting the cave, there will be a turret waiting for you. Also keep a look out for snipers! When the coast is clear hit the switch.

After activating generator three you will need to overdrive it back to generator two, don’t go back through the short-cut, follow the way points to it back. At the generator you will get a little cut scene, after the cut scene book it to the back-up controls. Before crossing the bridge use the supply depot, and get a missile launcher and a machine gun both using crash rounds.  Once you cross over the bridge you will have to destroy Salavador’s gunship before time runs out. This is were the machine gun and launcher comes in handy.  Avoid any red targeting markers, and keep shooting at the gunship. When you have destroyed the gun ship, and it has flown away head to the top floor and activate the backup controls to end the mission.
